We’re seeing another sticky situation develop, after Tesla recalled 46,096 Cybertrucks to stop them from falling apart because the stainless steel panels are held on with the wrong glue. This time, it’s the Cybertruck’s off-road light bar that’s flinging itself off at highway speeds. Incredibly, the light bar is also glued in place.

Recall when?

    Not trying to defend the cybertruck here, but just wanted to point out that quite a lot of exterior parts are generally held on by glue, across the whole industry. Windshields, for one.

      Well yeah but besides the windshield I don’t really have much glue on my exterior whatsoever. Especially not as the main thing holding something down.
